Jennifer Lopez may have just celebrated her 54th birthday, but you would never know it: The multihyphenate looks incredible in her latest makeup-free selfie video shared to Instagram.
Fortunately, the Leo queen—much like fellow Leo goddess Martha Stewart—used the social media moment to help the greater good. In the video J.Lo dropped her antiaging skin care secrets with fans, sharing which products she uses in her daily routine and the skin care commandments she's followed since her early 20s.
“I just had a birthday and I feel better than ever,” the Marry Me star says in the clip. “I'm getting ready, this is me, bare-faced, no makeup, and my JLo Beauty products I use every day.”
Lopez then turns the camera to face her arsenal of cosmetics, and calls out skeptics who claim she doesn't use her own products. “Here, for anybody who’s like, ‘Oh, J.Lo doesn’t use her own products on her skin,’ I call bullshit on you right now,” the Bronx native says, before applying the JLo Beauty That J.Lo Glow Serum followed by JLo Beauty's That Big Screen Moisturizer With Broad Spectrum SPF 30.

As for her essential skin care secret? “I’ve been wearing sunscreen everyday since I was in my very early 20s,” Lopez tells the camera and says that everyone else should follow suit (almost every dermatologist would agree). “You should start at a very young age. There is no filters and no retouching on this video; look at that,” she concludes, before signing off: “Bye, I love you!”
J.Lo's SPF tip echoes advice shared by Stewart's facialist, Carmela Barabas. When asked about antiaging skin care advice, she points to wearing SPF regularly. “First and foremost, protect your skin from sun exposure by using a daily sunscreen to avoid premature signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration,” she said.
So, whether you take it from Jennifer Lopez, Martha Stewart, or your dermatologist, remember to wear your SPF!
